Try finding a list of names you like and then asking the opinions on the names (and spellings of the names) from people you respect. This child will hopefully be living a long and wonderful life with this title so your gift of a name will be so much more meaningful and special if the name is something that relates to their future, community, people and character. Be careful in your decision over spellings; does it say "This child is an original, a free spirit" or does it say "This child's parents didn't know how to spell, she's probably as thick as two short planks." (Unfair perhaps, but people form impressions quickly and your child must be able to carry their name proudly in all places.) I've also been told that it's great for a child's mind if their name can be shortened to something easily spelled so they can learn to read and write it early- if it's something too complicated they can't relate the letters to the sounds so easily and have more trouble learning to read...
My daughter's name is Maegwyn; Mae from my Dad's mother Mabel, the rest from my Mum's name Raewyn, but we shorten it to Meg....

I have a niece named Saoncyrae. I love the name and know nobody else with that name. We call her Saoncy for short. It's pronounced just as it's spelled.(Say-on-see-ray) She also has a brother named Drake, which is a little unusual too.

I was thinking maybe dakota or skye. i dunno, i like the sound of those. i also really like jewel for a girl. and adonis for a boy.
For your Nehemiah Leslie, i like the nick name miles, but that is a really dorky name. try something a little softer, keep nehemiah, thats a pretty cool name, but not leslie, too girly...
